“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.”

John 14:27 NIV

Father God, it is so easy for us to worry about the circumstances in our lives

Each day, help us to remember that You are always in control

Help us trust in Your provision, protection and plans for our lives

Because we know You care about every need and desire we have…we know we can rest in You

Give us peace as we let go of circumstances that we can’t control and put ourselves into Your hands

In Jesus name, Amen

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.  Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.  For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”

Matthew 11:28-30 NIV
